Re:Apple Open-Sources its Compression Algorithm LZFSE by aidenn0 on Saturday July 16, 2016 @03:55PM (#12107640)
Zstd and lz4 fit different spaces. Zstd is more symmetrical in terms of compression/decompression performance. The reference implementation of lz4 has a fast-compressing and slower-compressing (but better compression ratio) implementation, and they both are slower to compress than Zstd, but are also both much faster to decompress.
